22.01.2022 It is with much sadness we advise the passing of past President 1987- 90 and 2012-14 Life Member 1992 of the Boating Industry Association of WA Jim (Jimbo) was 74 years old. Jim became a member in 1978 being active in attending every AGM of the association. Jim's passion for the recreational boating industry and his involvement in the Mangles Bay Fishing Club along with Sea Rescue will be greatly missed. Jim gave his time generously to staff and directors of the association... and never sought nor expected anything in return other than the success for his fellow members. His voice was always heard. The thoughts of the BIAWA board of directors, staff and members remain with Jim's family. Fair winds and following seas. Rest in Peace

22.01.2022 Rottnest Island Now Open Please note the following update As you may be aware, work has now commenced on the rebuild of the Rottnest Island Fuel Jetty with works expected to be completed by November 2020.... During the works period, access to the Fuel Jetty (including fuelling, berthing and pen mooring) will be closed to all vessels. The new jetty will offer a number of benefits to those visiting the Island including a new deck, additional power and water facilities, new finger jetties, improved refuelling/berthing for smaller vessels and an extended end platform. Once the Island is reopened to visitors this Saturday 6 June, skippers of vessels travelling to the Island will need to ensure they have adequate fuel supplies for their entire journey to and from the Island for the duration of the project. I will provide you with regular updates on the project over the coming months. Regards Lynleigh and the RIA

16.01.2022 Australian Builders Plates (ABP) - proposed update to ABP Standard The Department of Transport has been working with national and state marine regulators to review the ABP standard, which determines how calculations for the ABP are made. The ABP Standard ensures recreational boaters are provided with essential safety guidance regarding their boats loading and passenger capacity, engine size and buoyancy characteristics. With the intention of improving safety outcomes, a ...new ABP Standard has been proposed and public feedback is now sought. Maritime Safety Queensland are hosting the consultation on behalf of the Australian Recreational Boating Safety Committee. Key changes proposed include: further guidance for boat builders regarding how ABP values are determined; requiring flotation to be fitted in accordance with nominated technical standards; making the operational warning statement a mandatory inclusion on the ABP; and generally restructuring the ABP Standard to improve safety outcomes and ease-of-use. To comment on the proposed ABP Standard changes and for more information, please visit msq.qld.gov.au/A/News-and-stories/Australian-Builders-Plate. Consultation closes 31 January 2020.
